The Rebels traveled up north to finish the season against their most dreaded rival, the Wolfpack. After an early own goal by Nevada just two-and-a-half minutes into the game, the Rebels were able to hold on, to finish the 2018 season with a sweet victory.

Regardless of the sport, beating UNR is always one of the top goals for a UNLV team or athlete, and the Rebel’s Women’s team did just that in a year filled with many more highs than lows.

Following Nevada’s own goal, the Wolfpack responded with a goal by senior forward Analyse Talavera at 33:05 to briefly knot the game at 1-1.
